Supporting Diversity & Inclusion in Seattle’s Energy Industry

Seattle City Light supports the utilization of Women- and Minority-owned businesses (WMBE) on City contracts as both prime contractors and subcontractors. Partnering with WMBE contractors brings unique perspectives and expertise to our projects, ensuring our work reflects Seattle’s vibrant, diverse population. Each year, we establish a plan and annual voluntary goals for WMBE inclusion in consulting and purchasing contracts. Seattle City Light defines WMBE firms as state-certified or self-identified firms at least 51% owned by women and minorities.

Our Women and Minority Owned Business Enterprise (WMBE) Program is designed to support and empower Women and Minority-owned businesses, enabling them to contribute to Seattle’s energy future. Through this program, WMBE contractors can grow their businesses, access resources, and make a meaningful impact on our city’s sustainable energy initiatives. Contact our WMBE specialist to learn more about our resources and discuss potential City Light contracting opportunities.

To promote your business and make it easier to do work with City Light, register your business and get listed in the City’s online business directory, or search the directory to identify a WMBE firm to partner with.
